大多数道路不安全，不适合驾驶。司机没有妥善保养车辆，疲劳驾驶和酒后驾驶也很常见。交通检查员应该在各个超车位置查车。死者家属应该得到适当补偿

Is a payment of five lakh enough to shut people up from raising the real issues of corruption in traffic management???

50万卢比，足以让人们闭嘴，不再提出交通管理腐败的问题?

There are many reasons for excessive road mortality in India. Lack of traffic rules enforcement, lack of vehicle road worthiness checks on public and private vehicles, lack of liability insurance for public transport operators are some of key issues that can and should be fixed. If the transport company had adequate liability insurance, there would be no need for the government to use public money to comensate the victims.

印度道路死亡率过高的原因有很多。不遵守交通规则、对公共和私人车辆的适航性检查不到位、公共交通运营商没买保险，这些都是能够而且应该得到解决的一些关键问题。如果运输公司有买责任保险，政府就没有必要使用公款赔偿受害者。

First lane driving by heavy vehicles and reckless speed by busses, dumper, trucks is the major reason for most accidents.

第一车道行驶重型车辆，公共汽车、自卸车、卡车的速度过快是大多数事故的主要原因。

私人豪华巴士上载的人死了8-10个，所有人可能都睡着了，或者司机在打盹或喝酒。

Private bus operators are always are ending up in accidents. Yet no action is taken against them. Most of the drivers are over worked or in habit of slee in early hours. We never hear about the operator being jailed or punished. Unless the law gets serious about these accidents, there will be no solution.

私人巴士总是出事故，然而没有对他们采取任何行动。大多数司机都过度劳累或习惯早睡。我们从未听说过经营者被监禁或受到惩罚。除非法律严肃对待这些事故，否则没有解决办法。

Every single day, there are stories of tragic accidents in India where multiple lives are getting lost but it shouldn't come as surprise by looking at driving conditions on Indian roads. It's high time the government looks at this mess and makes some stern rules to improve it.

在印度，每天都有悲惨事故发生，导致多人丧生，但看看印度道路的驾驶状况就不会感到惊讶。政府是时候正视这种混乱局面，制定一些严格的规则，来改善这种情况了。

Road safety is a big concern and needs lot of improvement.Also, seat belts should be made compulsory in seater buses.

道路安全是一个大问题，需要做大量改进。此外，在有座位的公共汽车上应该强制系安全带。

I am not sure if seat belts would have been helpful in cases where a fire starts after the collision. I have a feeling the seat belts will delay/hamper immediate rescue efforts. At least half of india does not know how to put on and then unfasten seat belts.

在碰撞后起火的情况下，安全带是否有帮助？我有一种感觉，安全带会拖延/阻碍救援行动。至少有一半的印度人不知道如何系安全带好和解安全带。

So finally we know that the problem is not with BJP OR CONGRESS OR ANY OTHER PARTY. THE PROBLEM IS " MOST INDIANS ARE BASICALLY UN ETHICAL AND CORRUPT".

我们终于知道，问题不在于人民党、国大党或任何其他政党。问题是“大多数印度人的是不道德的、腐败的”。

Road safety, dangerous driving, and poor road design remain to be a topic that is low in our priority. Due to a lack of discipline and a large amount of corruption, we all know how easy it is to get a driving license.

道路安全、危险驾驶和糟糕的道路设计仍然是一个不那么热门的话题。由于缺乏纪律和严重腐败，我们都知道获得驾照有多么容易。

Most Indians drivers don't really know how to drive. Look at countries like UAE and Bahrain and Oman where getting a license is so hard. But in India you pay 1500 rupees and some tout will help you get a license even without a driving test.

大多数印度司机都不知道怎么开车。在阿联酋、巴林和阿曼这样的国家，拿驾照非常难。但在印度，你花1500卢比，就会有人帮你拿到驾照，甚至不需要参加驾照考试。
